Atlanta broadcasting legend Ernie Johnson, Jr. and his family are mourning the loss of his mother.
Lois Marjorie Johnson died Tuesday at the age of 94. She was married to former Atlanta Braves broadcaster Ernie Johnson, Sr. for 63 years until his death in 2011.
“She was our matriarch, our moral compass, our inspiration, our “Lolo.” She left us on Tuesday, January 17, 2023, leaving us with the one-of-a-kind memories that only 94 years can provide,” the family wrote in her obituary.
NBA on TNT paid tribute to Johnson during its show Thursday night with photos and memories from Lois’ grandchildren.
